The starlet shared an interview featuring her rumored boyfriend via Instagram on Thursday night. In the brief clip, the EDM producer opens up about the makings of the “sexy ’70s” video, which finds the former Disney Channel princess as a disco diva living life on the dance floor.

“I started this song a couple months ago,” Zedd, 25, said. “The moment we finished the song, Selena and I started talking about the video, and obviously she knows much more about that world than I do. It’s going to be a sexy ’70s video with a lot of very interesting effects.”

“I Want You to Know” is the first cut off Zedd’s forthcoming sophomore album, which is rumored to be titled True Colors. The “Break Free” producer uploaded a six-video countdown last week, leading up to his landing page ZeddTrueColors.com.

But let’s be honest — there are certain songs, guilty pleasure or not, that we’re too embarrassed to bump with the windows rolled down.

Especially for guys, there are surefire songs that will repel the female drivers around you, but there are also jams that you can bump on maximum volume to make you more attractive when cruising by an attractive lady.

The former Disney Channel star took to Instagram on Thursday and uploaded a photo of herself kneeling on a daybed or couch of some sort. The profile shot finds the 22-year-old flashing a sultry side glance while dressed in a simple black-on-black ensemble that accentuates her stunning legs.

Earlier this week, Selena and rumored boyfriend Zedd released the music video for their collaborative single “I Want You to Know.” The nightclub-inspired visual — directed by Anthony Chirco — features the EDM producer eying the Stars Dance singer, who is spotted hitting the dance floor and throwing down some carefree dance moves.

“I Want You to Know” is the first cut off Zedd’s upcoming sophomore album, and the dance-friendly tune is also expected to appear on Selena’s forthcoming release via Interscope Records.

In a scary scene, the singer-actress was completely mobbed as she attempted to make her way out of the Louis Vuitton show, where she had just moments earlier taken in the beautiful runway looks front and center next to Chloe Grace Moretz.

After posing for photos outside the venue, Selena was then surrounded by hulking bodyguards as she made her way through the sea of screaming fans and photographers.

Despite the chaotic scene — at one point metal barricades meant to keep the crowd at bay were sent crashing onto the sidewalk — the 22-year-old kept her cool as she safely made her way to her awaiting car.

The EDM producer, 25, spoke to MTV News and took fans behind the scenes of the visual for his newest single “I Want You to Know” featuring the former Disney princess. According to the “Stay the Night” maestro, Selena’s ability to take directions and evoke the proper emotions is what sets the 22-year-old apart from other artists.

“What makes Selena different from a lot of other artists is that she takes directions, and to me that’s really important,” Zedd explained. “As a producer, I like to be there when the vocals get recorded and I need the singer to listen to what I say and bring the emotion that I want. And she was really, really great with that.”

After sharing his best Selena impression, Zedd sang her praises and revealed a few things he learned from the actress-singer, who kickstarted her journey into show business on Barney and Friends.

“I think what I learned is she’s extremely talented with dealing with being in the press all the time and being everyone and not being bothered by that,” he said. “I find it extremely inspiring that you can shut off and kind of do your thing and not be bothered by other people.”

“I Want You to Know,” authored by OneRepublic‘s Ryan Tedder, is the first cut off Zedd’s forthcoming sophomore album. The EDM-infused cut is also expected to appear in Selena’s long-anticipated project via new Interscope Records, which currently has no official release date.

The visual finds the EDM producer, who is dressed in a tuxedo, wandering a club solo and admiring the former Disney Channel princess from afar. The ecstasy-evoking video also includes shots of the Stars Dance artist partying on the dancer floor during the heavy synth drops and getting extremely cozy with the other ladies in the nightclub.

Selena, 22, and Zedd, 25, first sparked dating rumors after the two were spotted holding hands at a Golden Globes afterparty in January. Now assigned the hybrid couple name Zeddlena by fans, the pair dropped major hints at their relationship by sharing several suggestive photos on their individual Instagram accounts.

The track, written by OneRepublic‘s Ryan Tedder, comes after Selena’s JB-inspired single “The Heart Wants What It Wants,” off her greatest hits compilation album For You via Hollywood Records.

“I Want You to Know” is the first taste of Zedd’s forthcoming sophomore album, and is expected to appear in Selena’s highly-anticipated release via Interscope Records. Fans can purchase the cut on iTunes here.

Postmodern Jukebox, the group responsible for an abundance of throwback covers of current chart-toppers from the likes of Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Nick Jonas, and Kanye West, tried their hand at Selena’s “The Heart Wants What It Wants” in the style of Motown with Lara Johnston on lead vocals.

Lara, the daughter of Doobie Brothers‘ Tom Johnston, totally gives new pep to the somber song, accented by her adorable shimmying. There’s also a cute moment before saxophonist Jacob Scesney‘s solo when he rides a scooter over to her with a heart balloon, which she dances with for a bit before throwing it on the ground and resuming her vocal performance.
